Blueberry and Banana Overnight Oats

Blueberry and Banana Overnight Oats! So easy to prep and delicious! Overnight oats are great because they are so versatile and can be customized so easily to create the perfect breakfast or snack! 

I love overnight oats! I have been using half steel cut and half rolled oats. I actually love the texture from steel cut oats. I also love that you can pile in the fruit and some nut butter to make it even more filling and delicious! If you make overnight oats, please let me know what you do!

Have you guys tried overnight oats yet? For busy parents and people, this is a dream because you prep everything the night before, refrigerate it and it’s ready to go the next morning!

WHAT YOU’LL NEED FOR OVERNIGHT OATS

• Yogurt (optional): plain Greek yogurt, flavored yogurt, non-dairy, up to you!
• Rolled oats: gluten free, regular old fashioned rolled oats or steel cut oats
• Milk of choice: regular, 2%, whole, almond, oat milk etc. 
• Chia seeds or ground flaxseed meal (optional; but works great because they fill you up!) 
• Vanilla extract (optional for sweetness and flavor)
